Frank Daniels and Richard Dayvault include a chapter exploring three special collections in their book Ancient Forests: A Closer Look at Fossil Wood. The Shreveport Collection is in this chapter and includes top quality Louisiana Palmoxylon. The Shreveport Collection was assembled over a 50 year period by Captain N.A. Foshee. The majority of specimens in our gallery are from the Shreveport Collection.
